State Assessments

CAASPP-Smarter Balanced
The California Assessment of Student Performance and Progress (CAASPP) System was established on January 1, 2014. The CAASPP System replaced the Standardized Testing and Reporting (STAR) Program, which became inoperative on July 1, 2013. The first operational administration of the test was in the spring of 2015.

The Dashboard is an online tool that shows how
local educational agencies and schools are performing on the state and
local indicators included in California's school accountability system.
The Dashboard is a key part of major shifts in California K-12 schools,
changes that have raised the bar for student learning, transformed
testing and placed the focus on equity for all students. The Dashboard
provides information that schools can use to improve.
